Beach Tavern is the perfect spot for a romantic evening, with its waterfront location, great food and ambiance. As one reviewer mentioned, it's the place where they proposed to their partner. The outdoor seating, relaxing atmosphere, and amazing views of the marina and water make it an ideal place for a date night. The food is consistently rated highly, from steaks to seafood, and the service is equally commendable.

    Everything was great until a single diner elected to watch videos on her phone with the volume up high. She was completely indifferent to everyone around her and the restaurant team felt they couldn’t intervene. This put a real damper on an otherwise wonderful experience.

    The food was fabulous. We loved everything about this restaurant. Also, Lilly, our waitress, was absolutely fantastic!! It was a very busy night, large holiday parties and short staffed. However, she was on point without missing a beat. I’ll most definitely return.

    We celebrated our anniversary at The Squire, and it was an exceptional experience. The ambiance was cozy and festive, with beautiful Christmas decorations that added a magical touch to the evening. We enjoyed the appetizers and cocktails; as a main course, the filet mignon and prime rib, both were superb. The filet mignon was tender and full of flavor, while the prime rib was perfectly seasoned and juicy. And to close the dessert with the anniversary touch was incredible. The service was outstanding. Our waiter Cory was attentive and friendly, ensuring we had everything we needed to make our evening special. Overall, The Branches provided a memorable dining experience that made our anniversary celebration truly special. Highly recommended for any special occasion, especially during the holiday season.

    Great view, attentive service, fresh and tasty food. Only drawback was the very loud conversation from nearby tables, which almost drowned out the conversation with my friend.
